SYNOSPIS For many years, a rocking chair is part of the everyday life of a Quebec family, patiently standing in as any number of make-believe objects in the children's games. Repeatedly broken, repaired and repainted, it is finally thrown out without a second thought. It almost winds up in a city dump truck, but is given a second lease on life as the useful and comfortable companion of a young security guard at a museum of modern art. When the crowds go home and night falls on the silent, empty gallery, the chair comes to life and relives its colourful past, while the paintings dance to the lively rhythms of jigs and reels.
